I'm also pretty happy with our backups throughout this organization as I don't remember a time when we had all good goalies In the system.

It'll take both Sig AND Barbs just to knock on Sutter's door.
And once they're at the door:

Canadiens at Flames March 3, 2022: Five things you should know
The matchup: This is the second of two meetings between these teams and the Canadiens posted a 4-2 win over the Flames at the Bell Centre on Nov. 11.
Toffoli off to a good start: Tyler Toffoli, who was traded from Montreal to Calgary last month, is proving to be a good fit with the Flames. Toffoli, who was Montreal’s leading scorer last season, has five goals and two assists in seven games in Calgary.
St. Louis’ hockey journey comes full circle in return to Calgary
“I never thought he’d become a coach, but then I saw him coach summer hockey with his kids,” said Denis Gauthier, who came up with St. Louis in the Flames organization.
“He was so professional with the kids, doing the right things and asking them to play the right way. They were the best minor hockey coached team I’d ever coached against, just the way he had them play. He had a vibe for the game and how it should be played and taught at a young age for the players to become better as they get older. The kids all played a very mature game…Marty has this positive cockiness about him. His assurance. He knows where he wants to go and what he wants. His aura is like no one else, so when he steps into the locker room, he’s got instant respect from all the guys, whether he has that coaching experience or not.”
Calgary takes home win streak into matchup with Montreal
The Flames are 15-4-4 at home. Calgary is the top team in the Western Conference with 5.8 assists per game, led by Johnny Gaudreau averaging 0.9
TOP PERFORMERS: Andrew Mangiapane leads the Flames with 28 goals and has 38 points. Matthew Tkachuk has 16 points over the last 10 games for Calgary. Jesse Ylonen leads the Canadiens with a plus-two in seven games this season. Cole Caufield has six goals and five assists over the last 10 games for Montreal.
Odds
The Calgary Flames (31-14-6) are heavy favorites when they host the Montreal Canadiens (13-33-7) on Thursday, March 3 at 9:00 PM ET. The Flames are -400 on the moneyline to win, while the Canadiens have +310 moneyline odds.

They have also been home almost the entire month. In the last 28 days the Flames have traveled to Vancouver and St. Paul. I expect this also helps considerably to mitigate any strain on Markstrom's body.

Points well made. How nice would it be if this team clinched the division on or before April 23 vs the Nucks and was able to keep Marky and a bunch of key players home for that final week.

Well, the Rangers are bad against the Flames this year.

Think I'm going to miss watching this one unfortunately.
Gotta watch cartoons with the kids tonight! But that's not really a bad thing at all!
I think I have them convinced to watch classic 80's cartoons!

Exactly, Calgary isn't immune to taking the foot off the gas. Hopefully they learned a lesson vs Vancouver and hammer Montreal double digit style.

It is definitely a trap game, but we are back to full crowd capacity, do hopefully that gives them a boost.
What is it - 11 in a row at home now? Gotta keep that rolling!

Hadn’t really noticed that before last game against the Jets the Habs were in a 5 game heater. A bit of a new coach bump (after they lost 3 under him).
A bit of a revenge game for Sutter for 04
